SMC ZP3E-T63UMCL-A16 High Rigidity Vacuum Pad – Flat Type with Groove and Adapter

The SMC ZP3E-T63UMCL-A16 vacuum pad from the ZP3E series is engineered for high rigidity and stable suction in demanding manufacturing and engineering applications. Featuring a flat pad design with a groove, it optimizes suction stability by preventing slippage and ensuring consistent grip on uneven or smooth surfaces.

Key technical specifications include:

• Pad Diameter: 63 mm, suitable for medium to large workpiece surfaces requiring reliable vacuum handling
• Pad Form: Flat type with groove, designed to improve adsorption by increasing the effective sealing area and facilitating easier removal through micro-dents and bumps on the surface
• Mounting: Equipped with both male and female threaded adapters for flexible installation options, compatible with vertical and lateral vacuum inlet configurations
• Vacuum Inlet Direction: Supports vertical and lateral vacuum intake routes, enhancing adaptability to various system designs
• Buffer Options: Available with or without buffer, with stroke lengths of 10, 30, or 50 mm to absorb shock and compensate for workpiece irregularities, increasing suction pad durability and operational smoothness
• Material Compatibility: Compatible with various seal materials including NBR, silicone rubber, urethane rubber, and FKM, to fit different environmental and application requirements

The ZP3E series design significantly reduces installation complexity by minimizing the number of mounting screws (from four to one) and allowing pad and metal parts to be disposed of separately, facilitating maintenance and replacement. The compact pad size and structural improvements result in weight reduction and an increased suction flow rate compared to previous ZP series models.

Engineered to prevent adsorption marks and designed under RoHS guidelines, this vacuum pad is ideal for precision handling in automation, assembly, or material transfer processes where high rigidity and stable vacuum holding force are critical.

Its groove and rib structure provide both enhanced suction stability and improved ease of removal, supporting a wide range of applications from flat to slightly uneven surfaces. The ZP3E-T63UMCL-A16 is optimized for longevity and performance in industrial vacuum systems where reliability and adaptability to various mounting and vacuum entry configurations are required.
